Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Chester, ID.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Chester offers medical detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
